What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Cheyenne, WY wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jul 16, 9:23 PM MDT, 1 hour 31 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jul 16, 9:23 PM MDT, 1 hour 31 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHEYENNE WY 923 PM MDT SAT JUL 16 2011 .UPDATE... WE HAVE UPDATED TO INCREASE THE OVERNIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS AREAS MAINLY NORTHEAST OF A SYDNEY TO WHEATLAND LINE. LATEST HRRR SEEMS TO HAVE A FAIRLY GOOD HANDLE ON THIS CONVECTION. WOULD EXPECT MOST OF THIS CONVECTION TO BE ON THE DOWNWARD TREND AS THE CONVECTION LIFTS NORTHEAST...DUE TO LIMITED SHEAR AND LACK OF DIURNAL HEATING. COX && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 850 PM MDT SAT JUL 16 2011/ UPDATE... WE ARE SENDING OUT AN UPDATE TO RAISE THE CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION ACROSS AREAS MAINLY SOUTHEAST OF A LARAMIE TO LUSK LINE THIS EVENING. IT APPEARS LIKE THE CONVECTION ACROSS NORTHEAST COLORADO IS LIFTING NORTHEAST TOWARD THE SOUTHEAST PORTION OF OUR FORECAST AREA. THIS CONVECTION APPEARS TO BE LIFTING FROM SUBTLE BOUNDARIES ACROSS THE AREA. WOULD EXPECT MOST OF THE CONVECTION TO GRADUALLY WEAKEN AS THE EVENING PROGRESSES...DUE TO LIMITED SHEAR. COX PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 533 PM MDT SAT JUL 16 2011/ AVIATION...00Z TAF ISSUANCE. WIDELY SCATTERED TSTORMS WILL CONTINUE THIS EVENING MAINLY EAST OF THE LARAMIE RANGE. THIS ACTIVITY WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH BY MIDNIGHT WITH ONLY A FEW RAIN SHOWERS POSSIBLE AFTER THAT. ANOTHER ROUND OF THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED ON SUNDAY...BUT MAINLY OVER WYOMING INCLUDING KCYS...KLAR...AND KRWL. BELIEVE THE HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS WILL BE TOO STRONG TO ALLOW FOR TSTORM DEVELOPMENT OVER WESTERN NEBRASKA. OTHERWISE...VFR CONDITIONS CAN BE EXPECTED THROUGH SUNDAY. PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 150 PM MDT SAT JUL 16 2011/ SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY... VERY WARM TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE OVER THE CWA THROUGH MONDAY. SOME OF THE HIGHS WILL BE ABOVE 100 ESPECIALLY BELOW 4800 FEET MSL BOTH DAYS. LOWS WILL BE IN THE MID 60S TO LOWER 70S OVER THE EAST PART OF THE CWA. THE CWA BELOW 4800 FEET MSL WILL REACH HEAT ADVISORY CRITERIA SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND AGAIN MONDAY AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...THE HEAT INDEX AT NIGHT DROPS TO AROUND 70. BASED ON THE EXPECTED NIGHTTIME HEAT INDEX WILL HOLD OFF ON THE ISSUANCE OF A HEAT ADVISORY FOR THE FAR EAST PART OF THE CWA AT THIS TIME. AT 700 MB...THE TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN BETWEEN 16C AND 18C THROUGH 00Z TUESDAY. THE SYNOPTIC PATTERN REMAINS SIMILAR FOR THE CWA THROUGH MONDAY. THE LARGE UPPER HIGH WILL CONTINUE TO SLOWLY BUILD WITH RISING HEIGHTS ALOFT AND AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL BE JUST OFF THE WEST COAST. THE 500 MB HEIGHTS WILL BE BETWEEN 1 AND 2 STANDARD DEVIATIONS ABOVE NORMAL OVER THE CWA PER THE GEFS FOR SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY. DURING THAT TIME...A WEAK SURFACE TROUGH WILL BE OVER THE EAST PART OF THE CWA. AS THE HEIGHTS ALOFT SLOWLY RISE...THE MID AND UPPER LEVEL MOISTURE PLUME WILL MOVE SLOWLY WEST. CURRENTLY... THAT MOISTURE IS OVER WESTERN COLORADO AND THE SOUTHEAST PART OF THE CWA...AND BY MONDAY WILL BE OVER WESTERN AND CENTRAL WYOMING. THE PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES WILL REMAIN AROUND AN INCH OVER THE EAST PART OF THE CWA. FORECAST RAOBS SHOW AN INCREASE IN THOSE VALUES IN THE WEST PART OF THE CWA AND A SLOW DECREASE IN THE EAST THROUGH MONDAY. MODEL QPF GENERALLY FOLLOWS THE PLUME FROM EAST TO WEST THROUGH MONDAY. THE MORE WIDESPREAD THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY SHOULD SHIFT WEST WITH POTENTIALLY HEAVY RAIN PRODUCERS BEING OVER THE WYOMING PART OF THE CWA SUNDAY AND THEN MAINLY OVER ALBANY AND CARBON COUNTIES FOR MONDAY. THUNDERSTORMS EARLY THIS AFTERNOON HAD SPREAD NORTHEAST AND WERE MAINLY OVER ALBANY COUNTY AS OF 1930Z. THE MOVEMENT OF THE STORMS AND THE LOCATION OF THE MID AND UPPER LEVEL MOISTURE PLUME SHOULD KEEP THE MORE WIDESPREAD ACTIVITY CENTERED BETWEEN KLAR AND KLSK THROUGH THE EVENING. THAT AREA HAS THE COMBINATION OF DEEPER MOISTURE...BETTER SURFACE FORCING AND THE LACK OF A CAP. FURTHER EAST...THE SLOWLY ERODING CAP IS IN PLACE EARLY THIS AFTERNOON AND FURTHER WEST...THE MOISTURE IS NOT AS DEEP. THE ACTIVITY WILL LIKELY PRODUCE WIND GUSTS TO 45 MPH...A PERIOD OF HEAVY RAIN AND SMALL HAIL. THE ACTIVITY WILL SLOWLY WEAKEN AND DIMINISH TONIGHT AND PICK BACK UP AGAIN LATE MORNING SUNDAY. LONG TERM...MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY SW FLOW BETWEEN AN UPPER HIGH CENTERED OVER THE CENTRAL U.S. AND AN UPPER TROUGH ON THE WEST COAST WILL PERSIST THROUGH THE WEEK. THE MONSOON MOISTURE PLUME STREAMING INTO THE AREA WILL BE WEAKER THAN THE LAST SEVERAL DAYS. DIURNAL THUNDERSTORMS WILL OCCUR EACH DAY...BUT PROLONGED HEAVY RAIN FROM THE STORMS DOES NOT LOOK LIKELY AT THIS TIME. A WEAK COLD FRONT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA ON THURSDAY. ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL ENTER THE NORTHERN PORTION OF THE CWA ON SAT...BUT IS EXPECTED TO STALL OUT OVER THIS AREA. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL BE FROM 10 TO 12 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL FOR TUES THROUGH THUR...AND A FEW DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL FOR FRI AND SAT. FIRE WEATHER...VERY WARM TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE OVER THE CWA FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS. THE LARGE UPPER HIGH OVER THE PLAINS WILL CONTINUE TO SLOWLY BUILD AND WILL SLOWLY MOVE THE MONSOONAL MOISTURE PLUME WESTWARD. BY MONDAY...THAT PLUME WILL BE OVER WESTERN AND CENTRAL WYOMING. ASSOCIATED WITH THE PLUME WILL BE THE MORE WIDESPREAD THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY MAINLY IN THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. SOME OF THE STORMS WILL PRODUCE BRIEF AND LOCAL WIND GUSTS TO 45 MPH ALONG WITH A PERIOD OF HEAVY RAIN. MINIMUM RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES THROUGH TUESDAY WILL BE BETWEEN 15 AND 25 PERCENT. IN ADDITION...SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL GUST AS HIGH AS 35 MPH DURING THE DAYTIME HOURS IN AREAS ALONG AND WEST OF THE LARAMIE RANGE. POTENTIALLY CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS WILL BE MODERATED BY THE POTENTIAL FOR WETTING RAINFALL...ESPECIALLY IN SOUTHEAST WYOMING...AND STILL SLOWLY CURING GRASSES OVER THE ENTIRE CWA. && .CYS WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
